Ashara (as far as I can tell) is unique in that she initially gains very little affection from gifts of any sort. Once you trigger a specific conversation with her, however, she opens up and gains normal amounts of affection.

I do not know the exact required affection to get that conversation, but it was somewhere between 1700 and 2000. If someone can find this information, I would appreciate it. As well, I think it was a conversation that could only be had on the ship.

The numbers in parentheses are her initial gains, while the numbers without are once you have had the aforementioned conversation. You will notice that the initial numbers match up with your chart.

cool, thanks for this data and info! I am still rather low with Ashara so I can check that for you and see when you get that convo.

I should probably add that affection gains vary in direct relation between the rank of the gift given and the “rank” of affection of the companion receiving the gift. Affection ranks are achieved every 2000 affection, although I’m not certain if the threshold is at every even thousand or if it is 1 over (I think rank 1 is -infinity to 2000, 2 is 2001 to 4000, and so on, but it may be up to 1999, 3999, 5999, etc.).

At even rank, you get 100% of the affection gain (+0, +24, +54 or +96), for giving a gift 1 rank below, the gain is 50% (+0, +12, +27 or +48). A gift 2 ranks below gives 20%, rounded as appropriate (+0, +5, +11, +19), and a gift 3 ranks below gives 0%. Giving a gift 1 level over (e.g. giving a companion less than 2000 affection a rank 2 gift) gives +10% affection, rounded as appropriate (+0, +26, +59 and +106). I have not bothered giving a gift two ranks over my level of affection, as it seems a waste, but I am curious as to the results. If I can secure a rank 5 gift for one of my lower affection companions, I’ll try it out sometime.

For anyone testing any of the information in your tables, it would probably help if they were to list their affection before giving a gift. That might shore up some of the confusion people seem to be having.

Good info, thanks!

There’s also an entire category of affection missing, as far as I can tell. There are three gains – +96, +54, and +24. Then there’s the zero gain category. According to these matrices as far as I can see, it only lists two types of category gain – may want to double check other sources for the third type. I’ve been updating my own copies as I can, but have very little on Empire classes so far. Good start though!

Ya I noticed when I was researching this info. However, the info right now on which ones are tier 2 and tier 3 (give the most affection) is pretty confusing so I opted to just include tier 2 and tier 3 together as one tier for now.

Just used technology on Ashara as SI and got +0 so is there something else which makes this work differently or something?

Hey thanks for this. I will update this info. I think you might have to romance her for it to work. I am not too certain.

I get the feeling it’s not quite as simple as a type.

I’ve had Qyzan turn his nose up at one type of Underworld Good (I think it might’ve been a Hutt list – I just looked to see it was an OK type then clicked) but then accept and give ~26 rep for an Underworld rumour sheet.

Could have just weirded out on that one item, buuut…

according to the chart, Qyzan has + for underworld goods so an affection gain of 26 sounds about right

Yes, but why give rep for one type of underworld good & not for another?
